That sinking feeling when your car hits another pothole in the drive? Victorian terraces throughout Streatham weren't built for modern vehicle weights, and those original paths are showing their age.

Cracked paving tells its own story - tree roots from those mature London planes, decades of frost damage, or simply the weight of countless delivery vans. Whether it's your front path collecting puddles or a driveway that's become an obstacle course, proper repairs make all the difference. Most Streatham properties have seen multiple paving installations over the years, each with its own quirks.
Matching existing materials takes experience - especially with those distinctive red clay pavers common around Streatham Common. First, damaged sections get carefully lifted and the base assessed. Compaction issues usually lurk beneath failed paving. Fresh sub-base goes down where needed, then individual blocks or slabs are relaid with proper falls for drainage.
Living locally means knowing which suppliers still stock those 1970s hexagonal blocks dotting Furzedown driveways. Years of fixing paths from Streatham Hill's sloping gardens has taught us exactly how water behaves on every gradient.

Small patch repairs on existing driveways start around £200-400, while addressing larger failed sections typically ranges £800-1500. Complete relevelling of a standard Streatham semi's drive usually falls between £1500-2500.
Absolutely - from the mansion blocks near Streatham station to the suburban streets of SW2. Regular work takes us through Streatham Vale, up to Streatham Common and across to neighbouring Furzedown.
Emergency trip hazards often get temporary fixes within 48 hours. Full repairs typically schedule within 7-10 days, with most residential jobs completing in 1-2 days depending on extent.
Every repair carries decade-long protection against settlement or material failure. This covers both workmanship and any materials we supply - though matching 40-year-old paving requires realistic expectations about colour variance.
Localised repairs work brilliantly when the surrounding paving remains sound. We'll cut out damaged sections cleanly, address underlying problems, then seamlessly blend repairs using reclaimed materials where possible. Sometimes a thorough clean and re-sand transforms tired paving without any replacement needed.
